    Everything is incredibly nice! From the most amazing view to the perfect bathroom and incredible balcony and THE best hosts. We intended to stay only one night but ended up staying three (and would've stayed weeks if we didn't need to get going). It was one of, if not the best, accommodation I've ever stayed at.

    There was nothing to dislike. Thanks to Debbie for offering my husband special rooibos tea, considering he doesn't drink coffee🙏

    The location is ideally situated near the various attractions we explored in Durban. Hosts Andrew and Debbie demonstrated a commendable level of attentiveness and support, offering thoughtful recommendations throughout our stay. Additionally, the room featured a lovely view of the sea.

    I had an absolutely fantastic stay at Debbie and Andrew's home in Durban. From the moment I arrived, I felt warmly welcomed and completely at ease. The hospitality was top-notch, and their home was incredibly comfortable and beautifully maintained. Debbie and Andrew went above and beyond to make my stay memorable, offering great local tips and ensuring I had everything I needed. I highly recommend their place to anyone looking for a wonderful experience in Durban. Their home has become my home away from home.

    None, everything was perfect.

    The hotel is situated in the best view in Durban. The UShaka Marine is just around the corner. There are activities from there and it is not too far to reach the CBD. Everything was perfect and I wish I had stayed longer than I thought.

    That I only stayed one night!

    Debbie and Andrew are amazing hosts. There is great communication from the beginning to help you access the apartment. They are also wonderful people so plan to set aside some time to just talk on the terrace over coffee. The upstairs terrace has a small pool and the best view over Durban's promenade. The guest bedroom is filled with windows and there are thoughtful touches like high-quality spa products for your use while there. You can easily - and safely - walk to the uShaka area restaurants, even at night.

    The 360 view from the deck with the pool was just incredible. I haven't experienced such a beautiful view before. It was amazing to sit in the pool and look down on the beach and ocean. Even the living room has a beautiful view. The security is first-class and the location absolutely ideal. Andrew is a kind host and gave valuable tips, while also seeing to it that we had enough coffee and milk. I hope to visit again soon.
